Subject: [PATCH] hostap: Fix ap_add_sta() return value verification
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=54b85f489bdfafc9306dfcc21e0d2687c34c3b34;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

[PATCH] hostap: Fix ap_add_sta() return value verification

The Coverity checker (CID: 273) spotted this inconsequent NULL checking
(unconditionally dereferencing directly after checking for NULL
isn't a good idea). Return immediately to avoid this.
